Regulations are in place for a reason.

Many but not all regulations are in place for a reason that remains good.
My university wouldn't try inverse classrooms (or record classes at all) because they have to be subtitled for the deaf (which costs money). However, deaf students don't have a similar requirement in normal classrooms. It's far more lax.
They don't have a similar requirement because they get a translator who can stand next to the professor and/or take notes, and due to the ADA, it's mandated that they provide those services. When it comes to video/communications, the regulations are a bit more murky because the FCC may be involved.

(There was a deaf student in my upper division math courses and I worked for a communications company with deaf coworkers for a bit.)

Tell that to the rest of the Valley.
